Centre for Contemporary Photography and Naarm/Melbourne based photographer and ACB Press publisher Rohan Hutchinson present Considered Environment: the Photobooks of Yukio Tabuchi, and Camera Mainichi as a part of Melbourne Design Week 2022.
Considered Environment reveals the pioneering work of
Japanese mountaineering photographer Yukio Tabuchi, in dialogue with the
influential editorial design of Camera Mainichi, a monthly Japanese camera
magazine. The exhibition explores the defining 1960-70s era of Japanese
experimental publication design – a period when book layouts and printing
techniques broke from tradition and set a radical future vision for publication
design practices around the world.
The exhibition design presents a collage of infamous page spreads from Camera
Mainichi 1960-70s; adjacent to these, an index, and publication labels, inform
the viewer of original editorial dates, in conjunction with forthcoming Photo
books where they're included.
The Yukio Tabuchi section of the exhibition illustrates Tabuchi's working
process; this includes reproductions of his sketchbook, in preparation for page
designs, along with a variance of photographic imagery, both in exhibition and
publication form—the inclusion of these assists in guiding the viewer through his working process.
